An Ohio probate judge held that a will
drafted on an electronic tablet that was both signed and witnessed was valid.
The court reasoned that the law recognized holographic wills and that the
electronic will met all the attestation requirements necessary for a valid
will.

Javier Castro refused a blood transfusion based
on religious reasons. Without the transfusion, he was going to die. In the
hospital, Castro wanted to draft a will but did not have a pen or paper so he
drafted his will on an electronic tablet and had his brothers serve as
witnesses to the will.
